Jim's Cafe, 2nd of June, 2021

[johnDoen]

I was pretty panic and hopeless in the recent days. I called those days "downs", when everything is just worse in general and my actions can be a bit too much.
Anyways, what happened today:

• 1924, the US government admitted that Native Americans are American citizens.
• 1953, Queen Elizabeth II was crowned. The ceremony was on TV.
• 1966, Surveyor 1 landed on the Moon. NASA eventually sent humans there as well.
• 2003, European Space Agency (ESA) sent a probe to Mars.
• 2014, India had a new state.

The Ancient Cavern
You see a cave with a lot of pictures drawn by an ancient group of people. They are mostly drawings depicting various activities of this people group, like hunting and herding. What interests you most?

• A deer hunt, with dogs (or wolves) following hunters
• A grain (not sure what kind of crop) harvest, with cats chasing mice.
• A harvest of fruits that look like oranges or lemons.
• A group of people gathering by a smoking campfire.
• A group of people butchering meat, cutting something, and put them in a pot. Cooking, for sure.
• A small person playing stick with a dog.
• A group of people making spears and bows, probably used for hunting.
• A group of people making pots and bowls, probably from clay.
• A group of people cutting down trees, and planting saplings.
• A group of fishing boats on the waves, and people throwing nets.
• A group people bowing to a seal, and offering fishes.

Well, the last one is suspicious but the seal simply said "Neaurgh. Blurgh. Argh. Blegg.", then walk to the nearest pond and rest.

I would probably choose the small person playing with a dog.

i noticed a picture in the darkest place in the cave and not easy to spot that depicted a person of nondescript age, gender and even if clothed or not yet boldly drawn. just above this drawing was another of a person who was very similar yet drawn with broken lines making it seem vague and sketchy. the same below was another. to the left and to the right were what must have been crowds of more sketchy people fading into smudges or smoke or clouds. i thought it best to not mention this to anyone else who had wandered into the cave. a boulder was close by and i wondered - had this big rock been originally placed to hide the picture? then i noticed a pebble on the ground which was apparently placed right below the boulder to prevent it from rolling. i found a stick and gave that pebble a shove. sure enough, the boulder slowly rolled into position hiding the drawing. i wandered back to the other pictures. just then i noticed the seal scampering off or maybe in. sorry seal, i chose the pottery of clay picture... but i was so sleepy i dozed off right then and there. when i awoke, everyone was gone. someone left me a piece of nicely broiled fish and pickled vegetable. i ate and then i walked home.

You should write novels someday.
I simply think of having the seal as your adventure companion and a running gag, or something more mysterious and important in the Realm of Lost and Found. This idea was from many seal videos I watched on Youtube.

Looks like @johnDoen took on what I still think of as my role. Even though I haven't been on here much in a year. 💕💕💕

Some reason pictures...

 

[Holding my breath]

Thanks for the tag the tag @johnDoen
I like the imagery your cafe provides.

I think I would probably be interested in the small person playing stick with the dog and the group of people around the campfire. Companionship is so important.

I hope everyone is having a good day. Sun is out here, hottest day of the year so far. Take care and stay safe. You are all amazing Xx

 

[Livelife]

Thank you for the tag @johnDoen.
All of them interest me, it represents community and connection and successful survival and living. I'd be by the campfire and on the claymaking pots and bowls team.
Happy Hump Day.
